I recently did some modifications to a Arbiter that we got in a Mystery Box a while back, and thinking about changing out the MLS unit.

So, my question is with the MLS LEDs do they already come with the wires connected to the LED? Is the resistor pre-installed? Also, is the quick disconnect US installed compatible with the 2 wire quick disconnects sold by TCSS? I've already set up it up using the one from TCSS, but if they're compatible - I can avoid buying new sets.

Thanks in advance.

MLS LEDs DO come with wires attached
Resistor is NOT pre-connected, allowing for the use of either a resistor or a buckpuck
TCSS and US use different styles of connectors on their 'quick connect' setups

Thanks for the info. Turns out that I didn't need to worry about the resistors at all. They're installed closer to the switch than I thought.

One note thought - I accidentally forgot to select no on the Quick Disconnect option on one of the LEDs I ordered, turns out they are the exact same. Still had to do some cutting and soldering though, I had installed the connectors I already had backwards compared to the way US sets them up. Not that I couldn't use the practice, LOL.
